Mexican Gold Libertads are official bullion gold coins from Mexico. Since the Mexican Mint first launched them in 1981, every annual release has become a globally anticipated event with both collectors and investors waiting to grab them before stocks run dry. These particular 2019 1/10 oz Mexican Gold Libertads are among the lighter fractional-weight gold coins issued by the Mexican Mint this year.

The Spanish viceroy, Antonio de Mendoza, commissioned the Mexican Mint in 1535. It allowed the Spanish to strike coins using the vast precious metals resources they found in the region. Since shipping unprocessed raw material to Spain and sending back minted currency was a costly affair, the Spanish crown decided to build the Mexican Mint. The Mexican mint is operational even today and boasts the title of being the oldest operational mint in the Americas.

Each of these Mexican Gold Libertads are struck using 1/10 troy ounces of 0.999 pure gold. Moreover, they are backed by the Banco de Mexico -- the National Bank of Mexico. Gold Libertads are renowned for their beautiful designs, quality striking, and extremely limited mintages. As a result, collectors have flocked to this program to secure their coins very quickly upon release from the Bank of Mexico. With a high level of collectibility and a low population, premiums in the secondary market of prior year issues generally rise significantly.

Mexico's symbols of strength and freedom both make an appearance on the reverses of these coins. The two volcanoes, Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl, symbolize freedom; the portrayal of the Winged Victory statue in the foreground is an iconic reminder of the Mexican struggle for independence.

Mexican Gold Libertads are perhaps the most famous gold bullion coins from the nation of Mexico. Each annual release is a globally anticipated event with stocks running dry soon after its issue.
